The debate featured Mr. Godwin Obaseki of the All Progressives Congress (APC); Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP); Earl Osaro Osaze Onaiwu of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and Pastor Amos Areleogbe of the Labour Party (LP).

Many criticised APC's Obaseki for lacking substance and actual plan for the development of Edo State, saying he is Governor Adams Oshiomhole's puppet, while on the other hand, Ize-Iyamu is believed to have a clear-cut agenda for the people of Edo.
